While writing some of my stories, I've imagined them in the same universe, and had a general idea of where those stories took place, but never really organized everything until now. All of these stories are set in the South-Jersey-Verse. Below is a picture of the area, with imaginary city names based on the names of cities in the "real" world. Below that is a list of the cities, and the stories set in those locations.

Having lived in South Jersey, and now "down the shore" (which your including in "south jersey" is enough to get you lynched around here) it's funny to look at all these town names and know how you put many of them together.

Yaaaay!
It's so nice to meet somebody who knows about the place I grew up in. Even though I live in California now, my heart still belongs to Jersey. :)
Living in South Jersey
Once you live in New Jersey, it is hard to get away from the love you have for it. Born in South Jersey and grew up by Del Mem Bridge. look forward to reading stories set where I know the area, but by a different name. lol

Oh cool!
So nice to see somebody else from Jersey! I'd been born in Philly, but I grew up all over south Jersey. Even though it's been a while since I been there, I 'member the Del Mem bridge. We used to take it sometimes when visiting family in Philly and Scranton. Ahhh ... the memories. :)
